UB Deluxe Navy Bass Case

Upton Bass — Wed, 08 Jan 2025 21:54:56 +0000

The newly redesigned Upton Bass Bag! Our Deluxe Double Navy Bass Bag combines the features that have made the UB Deluxe Navy Bass Bag one of the best selling double bass bags on the market with some of the best features of the Mooradian Standard that we have used and loved in past.

The improvements we’ve made on the new UB Deluxe Bass Bag make this bass bag easier to carry and maneuver. Extra long, fully adjustable shoulder straps with a heavy padded shoulder cushion make it both convenient and comfortable to carry. Strategically placed, seat-belt-quality handles make it easy to load and unload your bass in and out of cars and off of small stages.

The Upton Bass Deluxe Navy Double Bass Bag is a generously sized bag and fits 3/4 size and most 7/8+ size double basses. If you are unsure whether your double bass will fit in the Upton Bass Deluxe Navy Bass Bag, send us the dimensions of your bass, and we will be happy to let you know.

Gary’s Thoughts: If you’re a double bassist in need of a new double bass bag, look no further. Bass bags of this quality and price point just don’t exist elsewhere. We guarantee your satisfaction, or your money back!** Consider comparable bass bags like the Mooradian Deluxe Bass Case or the tough, over-built Soundwear Performer.

Some features of the Upton Bass Deluxe Double Bass Bag:

Improved exterior fabric that is both light-weight and more flexible, yet still a tight strong weave that can take a beating on the road
Offers great protection and is very compact-able. When not in use, you can easily roll it up and store it just about anywhere!
An inch of protective foam padding throughout.
Six strong double-stitched handles (made of seat-belt grade material) securely sewn with heavy duty upholstery thread all the way through the padding
Shoulder strap with tons of adjust-ability, allowing you to get your bass sitting at the perfect balance point
Large music pocket on the back
Two roomy accessory pockets on the front
Over-sized bow pocket that easily fits a bow case. Our bass bag also includes a free bow sleeve, offering extra protection for your bow
Double padded bridge guard to minimize the impact of accidental bumps on your bridge

Upton Bass Case “De la Ville” Double Bass Bag

UBassAdmin — Wed, 31 Jul 2024 12:20:48 +0000

The Upton Bass “De la Ville” Double Bass Bag is truly the perfect double bass case for rigorous, real-world use. Lightweight (6 lbs.), highly protective, and inexpensive: the Upton Bass “De la Ville” is unparalleled in quality at this price point! Why is this double bass bag called “De la Ville”? De la ville can be loosely translated to “around town”—and that’s exactly what this bass bag is made for!

In 2005 Gary, owner and founder of Upton Bass, set out to build a durable yet light-weight bass bag for just over $100. Gary distinguished between the fundamental and “luxury” features of the deluxe double bass bag and worked closely with our factory to build a double bass bag that was worthy of the Upton Bass name. Prototypes of our Upton Bass “De la Ville” Double Bass Bag were road and gig-tested over many months to ensure that the handles were secure and the fabric would not tear. This double bass case was pulled in and out of trucks, cars, auditoriums, dorms, nightclubs and bars and still retained its excellent qualities of workmanship. Our real world testing gave Gary the confidence to begin production and put the Upton Bass name on the “De la Ville” Double Bass Bag.

Features:

5mm of HIGH DENSITY foam padding throughout
Extreme Heavy Duty Zipper
Heavy duty, double stitched handles
Padded Shoulder strap
Large sized pocket on back
Bow holder
Heavy Duty thread stitching throughout foam and fabric
Protective Zipper Flap keeps the zipper off your bass!

Protec Bass Bow Case

UBassAdmin — Wed, 31 Jul 2024 12:20:45 +0000

Pair this bass bow case with a Double Bass Wheel, and transporting your bass has never been safer or easier.

Gary’s Thoughts: I can’t stress how important it is to have a quality bass bow case as I have seen so many irreplaceable bows damaged while they are in the sleeve of a padded double bass bag case.

This hardshell case is a MUST for any bassist!
